Chrome Steel Hex Head Mini Valve Cover Fastener

• Chrome steel stud secures valve cover with a clean, finished look

Secure your valve cover with this chrome steel hex head mini fastener, sized for 1/4"-20 stud/bolt valve cover hold-down applications. The extended hex nut style makes for easy hand-starting and wrench tightening, and the chrome finish gives your engine bay a clean, finished look at every hold-down point.

This is a single stud, 1-3/8" overall length with a 1" thread length — sold individually, not as a set, so confirm how many you need per valve cover before ordering. Washers and hold-down tabs are not included.

Fits any valve cover using a 1/4"-20 stud/bolt pattern, common across small block and big block Chevy, Ford, Mopar, and Olds V8 applications. Always verify your valve cover's fastener thread size before ordering, since some use 1/4"-28 or other pitches.

Applications
Universal fit for any valve cover using a 1/4"-20 stud/bolt hold-down pattern — including small block and big block Chevy, Ford, and Olds V8 valve covers.

Installation
Confirm your valve cover's fastener thread size before ordering — some valve covers use 1/4"-28 or other thread pitches instead of 1/4"-20. This stud is 1-3/8" overall length with a 1" thread length; washers and hold-down tabs are not included and should be sourced separately if needed.

How many of these do I need for one valve cover?

This is sold individually, not as a set. Count your valve cover's hold-down points to determine the quantity needed.

Will this fit my Ford or Mopar valve cover?
Yes, provided your valve cover uses a 1/4"-20 hold-down thread. Verify the thread size before ordering, as some applications use a different thread pitch.

Does this come with washers or hold-down tabs?
No. Washers and hold-down tabs are not included.

What's the overall length of this stud?
1-3/8" overall, with a 1" thread length and 1/4"-20 thread size.

What tool do I need to tighten this?
The extended hex-nut design accepts a standard wrench or socket.

Will this work on a big block engine, or is it small block only?
It can be used on small block or big block applications that use a compatible 1/4"-20 valve cover hold-down thread.

How do I know if my valve cover uses 1/4"-20 versus 1/4"-28?
Check your existing hardware or valve cover specifications. Confirm the thread pitch before ordering to avoid installing an incompatible fastener.
